Ghetto Cries



Listen  to voices from ghettos
dry coarse tones
The isolated trying to get there
Where not anyone knows

A child born in misery
seeking toys
in high class trash
searching joy

Mothers trying to survive
from the ghetto’s cry
A place she loves
  a run-down area
discriminated
by society

She survives In the way she must
as she listens
 afar the ghetto’s  cry
